Genital white piedra: Epidemiology, microbiology, and therapy
Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 1986The epidemiology of genital white piedra was investigated in 166 young men with a variety of genital complaints. Trichosporon beigelii was isolated from sixty-six (40%) of the cultured scrotal hairs. Infection was more common among black patients--54% of those examined, compared to 16% of white patients and 30% of "others" (p less than 0.001).

White piedra is a rare hair infection of man and certain animals, caused by the widespread Trichosporon fungi. The infection is characterized clinically by whitish, soft and easily removable coating of the hair shafts; however, the shafts may be destroyed by the pathogens invading at localized points. While all body hair may be affected, the pubic hair
